The role of Cover Letter is to invite the hiring manager to read your Resume. Don't repeat what you have said in Resume.

A cover letter works as a very brief introduction of yourself to the potential emplyer, it does show your attitude towards the job and potential emplyer. Keep it short, attractive and interesting reading in a polite manner.0 b4 h l( U* a, F. G$ O1 e

Generally, the potential emplyer (or the human resources manager) has only 15-30 seconds to read it.
